2.10 Learning Goals

D. Thesis: In my experience, art students are a group of diverse people and opinions, but there are many traditions and objects, such as their sketchbooks, that link them together to create an interesting culture.

You are required to discuss a work by a 20th or 21st century artist, photographer, designer, architect, film-maker, philosopher or writer and show how this work reflects, contradicts or extends theories of and attitudes to visual culture current at the time of its making.

My analysis of how successful and how did this artwork affect the society and culture as its target

To understand most period and movements in modern art, one must first understand the context in which they occurred. When one looks at the various artistic styles, one will realize how artists react to historical and cultural changes and how artists perceive their relation to society.

I was fortuned to have had parents who had a respect for all kinds of art and approached life with an open mind. Thus being furthered blessed to grow up near a metropolis which possesses a major art museum and galleries showcasing new talent, filling young eyes with wonderment. An art appreciation study early own in life would have been beneficial but alas, I burn with shame as one who falls in the class of “I know what I like” when asked about art. I am all agog for semester’s end to be better equipped to articulate on why I am moved by a particular piece. After listening to the first week lecture and reading the first two chapters of the course text, it was difficult to narrow the subject of my essay to one subject. But, Chapter Ones quotes

This course will enable the student to understand the historical, social, and psychological factors involved in the creation of works of art through an

Students through the process of art appreciation will build connections through the exploration of textures, lines, colour and shape when describing, analysing, interpreting and judging the artworks before them (3 chosen images). They are asked to describe what they see, the artist’s use of colour, lines, shapes and texture. They then move onto analysing; what catches their eye, is the composition balanced and do the paintings look flat or do they have depth. The discussion then progresses onto interpretation where students are able to express what type of emotion they feel when looking at the pictures, perhaps the kind of sounds they might hear if they could step into it, and why they think the artist chose this particular subject to paint and what may have inspired the artist.

I think what we are looking for in this question is the procedures used to formally analyze art work. The first step is to describe the work. This process should include The title of the work as well as who created it and when and the medium used to create the work. Our course description calls for information regarding who currently owns the artwork and its current location. Other information that can be included in the description is what kind of art it is and some history of the artist as well as history on the subject.

Understanding art is often thought of as being an unreachable goal, but art should not be considered arbitrary because it influences the cultures and societies around us. The purpose of this paper is to define and also establish my opinions on Pensacola Christian College’s (PCC) definition of art, the bibliosophy of art, and Dr. Francis Schaeffer’s criteria for art. These topics are useful for artists as well as anyone else critiquing art, and can also serve as guidelines and standards for an artist when they create art.

As the semester begins, I would like to continue to work on enhancing the previous goals and skills in my previous practicum class as well as use more advanced skills. I would like to work on implementing and illustrating enactments and scaling interventions in my sessions/videos. Be able to identify and understand situations/feelings that arise in therapy sessions pertaining to self-of-therapist and enhance my professionalism. Hence, having confidence to lead my therapy sessions by relying on what I have learned in previous classes. Also, be able to use proper clinical language. Moreover, continue to work on understanding my limitations, biases, comfort levels and work on being transparent in order

The form of the work of art is the prime focus of study: composition, volume, color, light, use of space, technique

It promotes viewers to maintain an apathetic gaze, which wanders to the next piece without ever delving into the first work of art. Cooper’s notion about the correct way to view Hudson River School paintings limits an audience’s abilities. There is no way that an audience member can know how the artist intended his or her artwork to be seen. Wallach counteracts Cooper’s ideal technique by emphasizing that viewers do not obtain a true understanding by simply staring. There must be engagement or the addition of other elements; otherwise, individuals are seeing only what is staring back at them. Deploying materials in connection to works of art, like texts explaining historical context, additional images, or artifacts, yields a complete and comprehensive understanding of an artwork. After all, studying means engaging and diving deeper into something to extract a true grasp on that something. Additionally, Cooper writes that Americans do not see anything other than in a surface manner; he jumps too far with this generalization. Like Wallach believes, American society is more open and sees things with a higher level of appreciation. The number of ways people can interpret and see items improves societal comprehension, not restricts it to one-dimensional viewing. Thus, art historians should attack art through a multitude of different lens. Techniques to explore artwork should not take on a passive role but instead, an active

Whether pride, fear, or peace, art is intended to make the viewer feel an emotion. The visit to the St. Louis Art Museum had me excited to discover a new revelation. Being the second time that I had visited in two semesters, I was looking forward to a new angle to take, writing about some of my favorite pieces I was unable to include in my last paper. This semester we have been focusing on the Renaissance era (1300-1700), also known as the Rebirth. During this time, scholars and artists looked back towards the classical learning. Purposefully looking past the middle-ages, they focused on the classical past of Rome and Greece. During this time period many works of art were created, however, throughout this semester every major artist we studied

SB cannot stay still for short periods of time and is up and moving around the classroom. S.B. will need simple, verbal, and repeated directions, structured learning task, and sensory support. I will provide appropriate learning goals for SB and provide manipulative and activities for her and her paraprofessional to work with at her spot on the carpet of seat.
